recognising that the numbers 0, 1, 2 and 3 could be represented by the patterns of two binary digits of 00, 01, 10 and 11

experimenting with different types of digital system components and peripheral devices to perform input, output and storage functions, for example a keyboard, stylus, touch screen, switch scan device or joystick to input instructions; a monitor, printer …

Elaboration (2) ACTDIP011

exploring common elements of standard user interfaces that are familiar and appeal to users, for example navigation links on the left and top of web pages to help users interact with the site

Elaboration (2) ACTDIP012

exploring information systems that suit particular home or personal needs, for example using speech recognition software that can help speakers whose language background is not English, or a system to monitor energy or water consumption in the home

Elaboration (2) ACTDIP018

designing the user interface of a solution using different design tools, for example using a storyboard to outline the stages of a game or a mock-up to show the placement of icons

identifying similar digital systems and their user interfaces, assessing whether user interface elements can be re-used

Elaboration (2) ACTDIP031

investigating what features of touch input rather than keyboard or mouse input contribute to their success in meeting a wide range of needs, for example mimicking a common movement such as expanding or contracting a hand to change the size of an object …

Elaboration (2) ACTDIP036

developing strategies to ensure the privacy and security of survey data, for example using numbers rather than names as identifiers; password protecting files to reduce risks of modifying data and using CAPTCHA™ to confirm human responses

improving the appearance and usability of data, for example using colour, headings and labelling of images to organise and accurately identify data

Elaboration (2) ACTDIP010

experimenting with different ways of describing a set of instructions, for example writing two versions of the same simple set of instructions for a programmable robotic device

Elaboration (2) ACTDIP017

using and interpreting data, establishing the root cause of a problem, for example using an annotated diagram to identify omissions, duplications or mismatches of data

Elaboration (2) ACTDIP020
